The bankrupt Bolanders swap their wine for Coca-Cola this week.
Will Loffie’s Lions rack up a second successive home victory?

I’m at EPS (CCP)..I don’t think the match is televised so you can follow my match report on my site if you want to.
Franco is out, Wheeler will start with Uys (From EG Jansen!) on the bench and bound to make his CC debut for the Lions! (AT LAST)
and the TMO is Michael Cupido, not SV
Thanks walter. The game seems to be on tv here
bummer, I couldn’t find it scheduled on SS so I’m not recording it.
7-0 to Boland last time I checked
it’s 10-7 now
24-10
Half Time
Lions in the lead 24-10.

Seems I’m gonna be way off on SB.
Lions doing some good things
JF standing next to the field ready to come on…

Walter, are you the only oke at the stadium?
It’s again very empty here…LOL! Heinke just had a 20+ meter run with the ball
@walter van transvaal.co.za (Comment 17) : Who scored number 6?
@robdylan (Comment 18) :
Willem Alberts
and Jaco van Schalkwyk no 7
@walter van transvaal.co.za (Comment 19) : Good player. Wouldn’t mind him in black
Alberts MOTM
And with that convincing win the Lions move to 2nd on the Log.
Now let’s hope for a 10-10 Draw in PTA.
I did a match analysis on the Lions errors if you guys want to have a look.

@walter van transvaal.co.za (Comment 24) : that is superb! I might well do that for the Sharks next week!
Thanks Rob…So I counted 88 mistakes by the Lions in the match…that’s more than 1 every minute.
